Job Title: Senior SDR (Founding Role)

Location: UK (Hybrid)

Salary: £60,000 base | £80,000 OTE


The Company

This is a rare opportunity to join one of the UK's largest and most established professional services businesses at a genuinely pivotal moment in their commercial journey.

With over £310m in UK revenue, 60 offices across the UK and Ireland, and more than 4,000 professionals, this is a business with real scale and serious backing. Historically they have grown through acquisitions. Now the focus is shifting. They are building the outbound function from scratch and this role is central to that transformation.

The business is Scandinavian owned with a culture that genuinely respects work life balance. You will have direct access to senior stakeholders from day one and real scope to shape what the sales development function looks like going forward.


The Role

As the first SDR on the ground for the UK and Ireland, you will be responsible for building and running the outbound motion. There is no existing playbook. You are helping to write it.

You will work closely with the Head of Sales Development and regional growth leads across the UK and Ireland, generating meetings with senior decision makers and helping to build the pipeline that drives the next phase of the business's growth.

This is not a role for someone looking to do the bare minimum and move on. It is a role for someone who is energised by the idea of building something from the ground up inside a large, well backed organisation.


Day to day you will:

  • Own outbound prospecting across UK and Ireland
  • Target CFOs, CEOs, MDs and Finance Directors at SMB and mid market businesses
  • Build and refine outbound sequences and cadences as the tech stack develops
  • Work closely with partners and regional leads to convert meetings into pipeline
  • Help evaluate and implement the sales engagement tech stack
  • Contribute to defining what the SDR function looks like at scale


The Ideal Candidate

You are a senior SDR with 2 to 3 years of experience minimum. You know the role inside out and you are not looking for someone to teach you the basics.

You will bring:

  • Proven outbound SDR experience in a B2B environment
  • Familiarity with tools such as Salesloft, Outreach and LinkedIn Sales Navigator
  • Experience selling into or prospecting finance, accounting or professional services buyers is a strong advantage
  • A consultative, personalised approach to outreach. This is not a high volume spray and pray environment
  • The ability to operate with pace and autonomy in an environment where not everything is defined yet
  • Genuine enthusiasm for the SDR role. This is not a stepping stone to AE for you right now
  • Strong internal stakeholder management skills. You will need to bring partners and senior leaders on the journey with you


What's On Offer

  • £60,000 base salary
  • £80,000 OTE
  • Hybrid working
  • Real ownership of a founding role inside a £310m revenue business
  • Direct exposure to senior stakeholders from day one
  • A culture that genuinely values work life balance
  • The opportunity to shape and grow a function, not just fill a seat
